Dear Friends:
It has been a pleasure serving you in the Connecticut General Assembly during the 2009 legislative session. Even though the state’s fiscal crisis dominated much of our time, I continued to work tirelessly on the issues important to you and your family.
Throughout the past session, I received hundreds of e-mails, phone calls, and letters from you and have spent countless hours listening to testimony on issues impacting our community. Listening to your concerns and learning about the intricacies of each issue allowed me to take a lead
on many initiatives this session.
As your State Representative, I am proud that I fought
to protect your religious liberties, championed a bill to protect the health and safety of teachers, students, and school staff by removing toxic cleaning products from schools, and introduced a bill that increases access to treatment for patients with Lyme disease. Teaming up with people from our community, other legislators and people from across the United States, I worked cooperatively, imaginatively, and purposefully to improve the lives of the citizens in Connecticut; ensuring we passed legislation that supports jobs, public health, education, energy efficiency, military families, and the environment.
As I prepare to examine the many difficult situations coming before us in the next session, please know that I will continue
to serve as an advocate and resource for you. As always, please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns.
All my best,
Christopher Lyddy
